Congrats to everybody who has been accepted and positive vibes to those WL!

Would anybody be able to answer if the matriculation number of 60 will be the same for Class of 2027 (entering year 2023)?

Thank you!

They have announced no plans to increase the size of their class, and the MSAR entry for EY 2023 still lists a class size of 60.

they'll likely call you again in a bit!! when i got accepted i missed the first call and they didn't leave a voicemail because they do the best to get the person on the phone since they love hearing people's reactions

I am a student on the alternative list. Since English is not my native language, there may be some grammatical errors, but I wanted to write down my thoughts that suddenly came to mind. By mid-April, I was overwhelmed with extreme anxiety. In the end, I wrote a letter of intent to the school. But looking back at that moment now, I think it showed how uncertain I was about my future. Through this community, I learned that I am not the only one who desperately wants to become a physician, but that many people are living in the world with dreams. I believe that God will give us the best place in the end no matter what the outcome is. I hope everyone never gives up, even if it does not work for this time. I need to tell myself one more time, to learn from my mistakes and move forward.

Current MS1, let me know if you guys have any questions!
 
DIDIDOTHATT said:
What do you suggest in terms of what to do for classes? For instance, does TCU provide me with certain materials like scrubs?
Click to expand...
The school provides one pair of scrubs. The only times we are required to wear scrubs (in Phase I) is during sessions in the anatomy lab. Clinical skills attire is business casual. For LIC, dress code depends on what clinic you're in. If you have specific questions about other materials provided, let me know!

Right now our Class of 2026 GroupMe has about 40 students. I'm sure there are other students who simply do not use GroupMe. Commit to Enroll for TCU is due on June 1st so if anything, the massive WL movement would be towards the end of this month/early to mid-June.

That’s a bit of a relief to hear, thanks for sharing! What is the significance of May 16th then? The waitlist email said the following: “That said, candidates for the entering class have until May 16, 2022 to make a final commitment to our medical school.” Is that different from CTE?

If people they have made offers of admission to don't commit to TCU by that date, TCU will go back to its wait list to fill the gaps.

Yes plan to enroll. With that, you can hold multiple acceptances. Right now students are fighting for better aid across the country and trying to get scholarship money etc. But the last day to say yes TCU is the one and only school I'm going to is June 1st. That is Commit to Enroll.

Did anybody in the current cycle submit their primary application without an updated MCAT score? I'm looking at applying for this school next cycle and I plan on retaking the MCAT on 7/16. On their website it states that they won't review without an MCAT score, but I hoping someone who did this can share how it went or provide their two cents. My AMCAS application is pretty much complete, just wondering if I should submit the first day.

TCU doesn't start in with their secondary invitations & interviews super early, so if you want, you can wait to see your new MCAT score and then add TCU to your AMCAS school list.

Thanks for the quick reply! TCU is the only school I am applying to on AMCAS (TX resident) so I am hoping to beat the whole verification timeline. Do you think I should still wait for the MCAT score then?

Well, what TCU said is they will not evaluate someone without an MCAT score. You have an MCAT score, just not one you're happy with. If you want them to definitely consider you with your new score, then wait until the new score is on your re-app. I don't see a downside to waiting in this instance.

I got the A call at 12:40 pm today!!! Was in the first interview group back in September 2021 and have been cc x 1000 ever since. So worth the wait! :)

Also: If anyone could help me join either the 2026 GroupMe or Facebook page, it would be much appreciated!
